Directed for film by the guy who coaxed Robert Duvall to his Oscar in Tender Mercies. Can't miss...
...that sounds like traditional blues territory, the next two songs (written by Album Producer Dennis Walker) find fresh ground. I Guess I Showed Her is the lament of a prideful lover who took his leave too soon ("Room 16 ain't got no view, but/ The hot plate's brand new./ I guess I showed her"), and Right Next Door (Because of Me) is a reflective apology sung by the kind of guy who usually doesn't say he's sorry: "She was right next door, and I'm such a strong persuader./ She was just another notch...
